So without further ago I present to you my 39 things I want to do or achieve by 40 and maybe a few days.
- To eat fruit and veg every day - Cos if I'm honest I don't and it can't be good for me to eat like a 15 year old at my advanced age.
- To move back home, last year I moved to Swansea to be with my Mum following my Dad dying and it would be fair to say I don't love it (Sorry Swansea) Now Mum says she will move back to Kent, we can all go back.
- To get a new job (necessary for the move to Kent)
- *Disclaimer* I am not a dieter and have no intention of dieting properly, but a goal of mine is to get back into my Limb dresses, as I love them and they cost loads and currently don't fit my body as I may have been feeding my unhappiness in Swansea.
- Have a Brit Pop themed 40th Birthday Party.
- To start Burlesque Classes again.
- To update my Blog at least 6 times a month.
- Finally finish a shitty first draft of my book I have been writing like forever.
- Go back to Zumba, as it was fun and good exercise.
- Get better at accessorizing, as I can do bags and shoes but I struggle with belts and jewelry at times and I do get a little bit green eyed at other Blogger Babes brilliance at this.
- To get something from the Blackheart Creatives Live Fast Die Yum collection.
- I think I should probably learn to drive as I have been trying to learn for like 19 years on and off, so I think it might be time.
- To feel better and healthier at 40 than I did at 39.
- Master putting on false eyelashes
- Following on from False eyelashes, I would love to perfect Cats eye eyeliner flicks.
- Get my 1/4 sleeve done.
- Do something to raise money for charity.
- To have a photoshoot, as generally I feel awkward and most unpretty in photos and I would love a kick ass set that I feel proud of.
- To go to London more, as it is only down the road and when I lived in Kent before I only went for hospital appointments or with work.
- Go for afternoon tea with my girly friends (well I am Twee)
- Take more photos.
- There is a bit of a poser in me, deep down and I would like to do some Plus Size Modelling.
- To be more of a positive person - as I can be a bit negative and oh things are only gonna get worse.
- See my brother's children, as he has 2 lovely children I have yet to see, as he lives in Norwich and I lived in Kent and then Swansea.
- Whilst I'm at it, to be a better Aunty as I am a bit haphazard with Birthdays and the like (Sorry kids)
- Grow a herb garden.
- Get a Wonder Woman Print Dress
- As a bit of a foodie I would like to eat in a Michelin Star Restaurant.
- To wear a pair of shorts, as I don't think I have worn a pair since I was a kid
- Start Saving to go to the Winter Olympics in South Korea.
- Have a midnight picnic on the beach.
- Go on the Harry Potter Studio tour (Would love go Harry Potter World at Universal but don't think I can afford this before I am 40, maybe for the 49 before 50)
- Find a wig that suits me
- Sort my garden out so it is a lovely Oasis, rather than a hideous eye sore.
- Visit Deal Castle, as I have lived there mainly since I was 15 and have never been.
- Go to Atomic Burgers in Bristol.
- Visit the National Portrait Gallery.
- Go to Harrods, cos well I have never been and feel like I should see it once.
- To actually go to a Bloggers Meet Up and meet some of the most stylish people I know in the flesh
So what about you is there anything you want or feel like you should have achieved by 40? Or is it just another bloody number?
